Tetrahymena: These are thermophile and unicellular eukaryotic organisms. Their doubling time is 2 hours. They have two nuclei. They are essential model organism for understanding cilia biogenesis, telomerase structure and function etc.
Watching the movement of this organism coerced me to capture and share it with all. The sample is taken from a small village bakaniya of Madhya Pradesh (India).
